Why we picked it The full book behind the essay, for when you want the system and not just the idea. It gives you the language of outcomes over outputs so you can defend a no to your team and your customers with something concrete. Worth it if requests are piling up faster than you can reason about them.
Escaping the Build Trap
From Melissa Perri (O'Reilly) by Melissa Perri 200 pages
- Tie every build decision to a measurable customer or business outcome
- Say no to work that only adds output without moving an outcome
- Set up the org so outcomes, not feature counts, decide priority
